Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to the technical field of furniture, in particular to a window structure for visualizing the internal structure of upholstered furniture and seats.
  • Furniture refers to a broad category of appliances and facilities that are essential for human beings to maintain normal life, engage in production practices and carry out social activities.
  • the interior of the existing soft furniture is mostly composed of PU foam or springs, and the user cannot see the structure or composition of the soft package, therefore, the user is prone to doubt and distrust the quality of the product, which is not conducive to the establishment of mutual confidence between the product and the consumer, at present, the structure visualization technology adopted by a small number of new furniture is generally through the leather cover and zipper, and the zipper is opened through the leather cover to see the structure such as the foam inside, although this kind of structure visualization technology can achieve the effect of visualization, it takes time to dismantle, the practicability is poor, and it needs to be improved.
  • the object of the present disclosure is to propose a window structure for visualizing the internal structure of upholstered furniture and seats in order to solve the shortcomings existing in the prior art.
  • a window structure for visualizing the internal structure of upholstered furniture and seats comprising a base, a side surface of the base is provided with installation grooves, and the inner walls of the installation grooves are provided with transparent windows
  • the inner wall of the base is equipped with a seat board
  • the top surface of the seat board is equipped with a shaping layer
  • the top surface of the shaping layer is equipped with an elastic layer
  • an elastomer layer is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the elastic layer
  • an outer layer is mounted on the top surface of the elastomer layer
  • the shapes of installation grooves and transparent windows are any one of rectangle, circle, polygon, honeycomb, triangle and irregular graphic.
  • the present disclosure improves that limiting grooves are provided on the side of the shaping layer, limiting blocks are fixedly installed on the sides of the elastic layer and the elastomer layer.
  • the present disclosure improves that the limiting blocks are the same size as the limiting grooves, the limiting blocks are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the elastic layer and the elastomer layer, and the limiting grooves are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the shaping layer.
  • the present disclosure improves that the outer layer, the elastic layer and the shaping layer are all made of polyurethane foam.
  • the present disclosure improves that the elastomer layer is made of TPE material, that is, thermoplastic elastomer, the material of the transparent windows is TPU, that is, thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer rubber.
  • the present disclosure improves that buckles are fixedly installed on the sides of the transparent window, and the buckles are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the transparent window, ventilation grooves are arranged on the surface of the transparent window near the edge.
  • the present disclosure improves that the inner wall of the shaping layer is fixedly installed with polyurethane foam columns, and the polyurethane foam columns are distributed on the inner wall of the shaping layer according to the body shape of the human.
  • the present disclosure has the following advantages and positive effects.
  • the materials of the outer layer, the elastic layer and the shaping layer are all adapted to the body shape, meet ergonomic requirements, and are also relatively soft, which can improve the comfort of the user when using, at the same time, the elastomer layer has good impact resistance, is not easy to be damaged, and can improve the service life of the present disclosure at the same time, through the transparent windows, the user can conveniently view the internal structure of the present disclosure so that the user can trust the quality of the product, at the same time, the ventilation grooves arranged on the transparent window can facilitate the air circulation in the present disclosure, so that the ventilation can be improved while visualizing, at the same time, the generation of air flow can reduce the surface heat of the present disclosure, so that the surface of the present disclosure can keep cool and dry, thereby ensuring the free movement of the foam structure and the drying inside the structure of the present disclosure, and improving the user experience, in addition, the transparent window is mainly clamped in the installation groove through the buckle, and the connection mode of the buckle can facilitate the installation and disassembly of the
